What did your mom used to yell at you about....

[Glenda]

that you now do guilt-free?

I just realized that she used to say "Don't stand there with the refridgerator door open" when I was hungry and couldn't think of what to eat.

Now I don't care if I stand there indefinitely.

Tell me yours...

1. No snacks after 4 PM! n/t

[InvisibleTouch]

2. Leaving my bed unmade.

What a waste of time! Like I've ever had a visitor care that my bed is unmade ... and certainly the dogs don't mind either. :)

9. Another bed-non-maker here.

I got threatened with reform school for that one.

[RetroLounge]

3. To not fight with my brothers

4. Stand up straight

now I think of her every time I slouch.

[iconoclastic cat]

5. Constantly running away.

It was my response to just about ever conflict. Once I made it about 40 miles/3 days before deciding to come back!

[Hans Delbrook]

6. Using my foot to close things

Like the fridge door, cabinets that sort of thing.

Oh, and I play ball (w/ my dogs) in the house ALL THE TIME!

And I put my feet on the coffee table whenever I want.

And I read while I'm eating and I sing at the table if I feel like it... wow this could go on for a while if I let it.

7. IN or OUT!

Now I regularly go inside and outside whenever I want to, sometimes even slamming the door behind me.

[n2mark]

8. That is a very sensitive question for me

[Feathered Fish]

10. "Get that hair out of your face"

[BrklynLiberal]

11. Cleaning up my room....

finally she told me to keep the door closed, and said if I wanted to live that way, she did not want to have to look at it.

[biscotti]

12. Eat the crust on bread

are your hair won't be curly. I have never eaten the crust on bread. My hair is poker straight.

[shawcomm]

13. Don't pick at it or

you'll go blind.



Wait, that's not right...

[bahrbearian]

14. "Grow Up and Die Right !"

Still haven't done that yet.

[VOX]

15. Just goofing around. "We've been ready for half an hour, while you've..."

"...been in your room, flub, flub, flubbing around!" I can laugh about this now, but it wasn't funny at the time! :grr:

And I miss the old gal (passed away in 2003).
